Sega's Project RINGO Is... Another Puyo Pop Game

The weeks-long series of teasers for Sega's Project RINGO have turned out to be what many had speculated—the game is another entry in the long-running Puyo Puyo puzzle-game series.

According to the latest issue of Famitsu Weekly, by way of 1UP, Sega will bring the colour-matching puzzle stylings of Puyo Puyo 7 to the Wii, Nintendo DS and PSP. The DS version will hit first, landing in Japan on July 30th, with other versions expected to follow much later in the year.

Known as Puyo Pop internationally, and occasionally retrofitted as other properties like the Genesis game Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine and Kirby's Avalanche for the SNES, the series is known for numerical puns. Sega's teasing of the the number "247" was a dead giveaway to some.

When I was younger, Resident Evil 4 looked so cool. I remember being so excited to play it. Then I found out that it was only going to be released on the Nintendo Gamecube, which I didn’t own.
My dreams were shattered because I was a dumb kid and didn’t realise that one day it would come to more consoles. Since that sad moment in my life, RE4 has been released on nearly every platform. And I can’t stop buying it every time a new port is released.
